Hi everyone! Our next Open House will be this Saturday from 9-12. There will not be a meeting as I will be out of town, so you will drop off your inventory and pick up supplies for our meeting in November, our last one for the year. We will not have a meeting in December and [...]
Hi everyone! I completely forgot to send out the reminder email for Saturday from 9-12. We will have a meeting from 10-10:30 so it will not be possible to select fabric during this time. We will go over distribution and show you our new bracelets for the boys. We will have some pillowcase kits. Reminder, we will [...]
Before I update everyone on the number of kids we helped this year, I have some sad news. My husband passed away right after distribution on July 27. Some of you knew that he had been in failing health for many years with respiratory issues caused by very brittle bones resulting in reduced lung capacity. I [...]
What a summer we had! Our 2023 "New Clothes = New Beginnings" was a HUGE success! Thank you to all of the sponsors and volunteers who helped us get almost 4,000 students ready to go back to school. Thank you also to Devin Booker for showing up and helping in the shoe department – what a [...]

Hi everyone! This Saturday will be our last inventory turn-in so please bring it all, plus any kits you haven't finished. If you still have fabric, you can create this summer and turn it in at our September Open House. I know there have been issues with signing up for distribution but if you could do it [...]
Thanks everyone for their inventory turn ins on Saturday! You all kept us hopping. Only one thing, someone turned in a top and a pair of hand crafted shorts. Please remember we do not accept hand crafted items - to be blunt and clear - with a crotch. We are unable to safely fit a child [...]
Hi everyone I apologize for the late reminder for our meeting this Saturday, but I was hoping the distribution volunteer website would be up and running, but alas it is not available yet. As a reminder, I will no longer have the manual sign up sheets for distribution. Everyone will now go online at Back to [...]
